"for me, hugh is calm, &pcollecced. during the games you'll see some emotion comm ouu of him, but normallyy he's our rock." make no mistake, while it would make history if the u.s. women's team wins be a surprise. this team has been peakinn under mccutcheon and is ranked numbbr-one in the world. so is theree pressure? "i don't see it as aa pressure thing. i think it palidates all the hard work
